Chapter 123

Jonathan's face was solemn, his jaw clenched, and sweat dripping down his temples. His eyes were determined and angry, as if they could burn everything before them. He took a deep breath, trying to control himself despite his racing heart. Beside him, Antoni, although looking frightened, felt Jonathan's spirit flow into him. A new strength filled his chest, giving him the courage he had never had.

As Jonathan began to threaten Carson, Antoni felt his heart pounding, but he stood his ground. Antoni felt his spirits rise when Carson, the notorious squad leader, looked at them with a sardonic smile.

"You guys are fearless. It's like you don't know who you're dealing with?" Carson said, his voice calm but containing an implicit threat.

People like Jonathan were rare amid a siege. He still showed courage. Most people only pretend to be brave when, in reality, they are scared. Carson observed Jonathan, recognizing his courage. He rarely found people who were so courageous like this.
